About a week ago, I got a Facebook message from a friend asking if I knew anyone who could sew and was willing to help with the costumes for the second grade play! And in my
Monday, I picked up this lovely fabric:
I was shown the dress they needed me to make, but not given an actual pattern.
Thank goodness it was a peasant dress and I knew I could make four dresses in an evening.
Because I'm such an awesome mom, I took two patterns and Frankensteined them together to create the pattern to recreate the dress.
In the end we ended up with four of these:
The performance was tonight and the kids did a fantastic job. I was so proud of my kid because she can carry a tune. Definitely doesn't take after her mom on that one! Danger Girl was one of the dancers for a rendition of Hard Knocks Life from Annie. None of the girls actually had to dress like Annie.
I distorted the faces, though I probably didn't need to. They are all about as clear as Danger Girl's...that is to say, I seriously need a camera besides the one on my phone!
You are awesome mom! Thank you so much for your help :) I'm glad Danger Girl had fun last night -- second grade always puts on an amazing show.
